    Room is small, but that forces you to spend your time with other guests in the common areas.

    Breakfast, lunch and dinner included. Hot tub and pool was great for apres. Big sense of community.

    Fantastic stay at Peruvian

    Please be aware for many people it's not ski/in out , and need to take the free shuttle to Collins or Albion lifts , although we only waited 2 mins at most as it is very frequent

    My family enjoyed the relaxed friendly atmosphere , the meals were very good and had choices to suit everyone As am gluten-free was concerned that might be minimal choices , but plenty of variety The fruit salad was freshly cut up each meal , not cut up day before and going off Enjoyed fresh fruit at reception each day and also the free coffee machine in lobby , very well placed as it as at top of stairs from ski locker and nice to grab a cup and sit down at end of day having included lunch was great , and the food on the slopes was poor by comparison Staff very friendly and great team spirit , Todd the GM is there most days and helps out , not stuck in an office in Salt lake city , Patrick Pike the rooms manager managed to squeeze us in for an extra night on Presidents weekend , Free Shuttle to Collins and Albion lifts driven by Dave , gave everyone tips on which areas to ski Maddie in restaurant was super efficient and very good liaising with chef to check gluten free status We liked sitting with different people each meal , learning about different areas of country

    The vibe at the Peruvian is the best part, it’s got a laid back old school energy that is really special.

    The staff at the front desk was so-so. I asked for two extra pillows and they only brought one. I've seen more friendly faces. The place is celebrating its seventy-fifth year and it is showing its age. I noticed a number of issues that required some maintenance. It could be kept cleaner, especially the showers and toilets.

    At the Peruvian, breakfast, lunch, and dinner is included in the price. The breakfast and lunch are plentiful, and the dinner is absolutely first rate. They vary their dinner menus each night. The wait staff is very good and very helpful. The rooms were wonderful - except it was hard to regulate the heat. But there was shelf space and a sink in the room. The hot tub is hot!!! Which I appreciate. Actually, they have a hot tub, warm tub and heated pool. Take your pick. There is also a sauna and hors de oerves are brought out at about 4:30. Awesome.

    it is dated and the dorm section is rough but that’s the nature of the beast prices are high for the room quality, but includes 3 full meals and you’re paying for the location

    classic ski lodge geared for the no nonsense skier. lobby is super comfortable, great views, bar is rowdy and the food is good. room is simple but comfortable. the staff is very accommodating.

    All the meals were very good! They had a fireplace or two going most of the stay. Hot tub was nice and hot Very friendly staff! Highly recommended !! Ask your shuttle driver from the airport to make a pit stop on the way to the mountain, if you want . There are not any markets up on the mountain

    Rooms are old and show their age, but that's part of the character of the Peruvian.

    Public areas very pleasant. Good and plentiful food at all meals with lots of variety and always a vegetarian option.

    Love Alta and the Peruvian's vibe, but the beds and rooms are not acceptable at these prices.

    The rooms were downright awful. We had two single beds and my mattress felt like it was hostel level quality. It was so soft (and I like soft beds) that when I rolled over it would start tipping and I'd nearly roll out of bed. The sheets were paper thin and so old that the fitted sheet would come off every night. We had a 6" square hole in our wall and no temperature control in the room. I didn't expect posh, but this was levels below a Motel 6. My son and I slept poorly throughout our stay.

    It was nice to have meals with other skiers. Like the chill, low key vibe of the place. The breakfasts were hardy and the dining room staff was nice.

    Our room/bathroom was very dated. It was without heat. No heat! They provide a space heater, but there wasn’t a smoke detector. Seems dangerous if not illegal. One of the bedside lamps was broken. We asked for an extra lamp multiple times with no success. We were there with other guests and saw 4 other rooms, they were all better than ours, but we all are paying about the same price. It’s all inclusive and the dinner menu was small - the mains never changed and the dishes were inconsistent and poorly prepared. It seems like they are slowly updating the place and we ended up with one of the worst rooms.

    location, location, location. Proximity to the mountain and shuttle back and forth was the single selling point. This is what you pay for. The ski shop is excellent and that staff was very helpful. The bar is fun.
